I love mountain climbing and travelling. Sometimes, while I'm out there, I press the record button on my GoPro. You can see the results here, poorly edited with music I enjoy. My videos aren't that much interesting or remarkable, but I don't care. And neither should you, because I don't do it for you. I maintain this channel as my personal collection of video memories. Don't get me wrong - I don't mind sharing my videos and I very much like any feedback. But the logic behind this channel is quite simple: Whenever I'm second guessing a purchase of plane ticket and I'm all: "Is it really worth it?" "Wouldn't it be better to just stay at home?" - I just take a look at my old videos and I'm instantly reminded of those amazing experiences and fully motivated to go somewhere and explore again.

Dubai's meteoric rise from the desert sands to a global metropolis is a testament to its visionary leadership and strategic use of resources, making it a symbol of modern luxury and innovation.

Hi! I’m planning to climb these solo too. How did you avoid the crevasses from the hut to Jungfrau? It’s pretty flat and most of them are visible but I’m still wondering if I should take some precautions. Also did you descend the same route you ascended to Jungfrau. I think timewise it’s better to descend with rope above the crevasses (on the vertical spot) but I don’t know if I can set up the rope solo there:)
Hey there! I followed the normal route as best as I could and it bypassed the crevasses fairly well. It’s been three years so I don’t remember all that much but only issue I had was fairly steep ice/snow climb up the Rottalsattel and then fairly steep ridge up to the top of Jungfrau. I had no rope but I had two iceaxes and it helped a lot. I descended the same way. I didnt start from hut but from the first Jungfraujoch train so the snow was quite soft and terrible… but somehow I made it… I have found my old gps record on strava, dunno if it helps strava.app.link/mxbfLXzwSJb Good luck out there!
@@cedr Thank you! This is really helpful. There is not much info about soloing since it’s so risky
Wish I could be there ❤
Did you cross any glaciers?
Yeah… once you exit the cablecar the entire normal route is on the glacier
Ops, maybe not for me as a beginner. Thank you for your video😇
💓 Thanks 💓 💚🐉🇨🇳🐉💚 Sinosphere 🌀☸️☯️🕉️🌀
Our chaotic city but its great . Thanks
I really enjoyed my stay 👍
Hi Ondřej, do you have to make a reservation at Cosmiques Hut to take this route? Or did you spend the night in Chamonix and take the first cable car? Because I want to climb while I am here for a few months but all the Gouter huts are booked.
Hi! I’ve spent the night in Chamonix and took the first cable car (actually I belive it was second one since the first was already full). I started the climb at 7:00am and it took me six hours to the summit. Then another five hours descending via Gouter to the “tramway” station so I was able to catch the last ride down. It’s doable but it is quite exhausting since you have to be kinda rushing. Ice/snow during ascent was fine, during descent it was very soft but it didn’t really matter since gouter route is easier. Rocks were falling quite heavilly in late afternoon in “death couloir” under gouter so pay attention. You don’t need to have reservation for the first cablecar, just be there earlier since plenty of climbers want to go up early. Good luck out there!
Beautiful city 😍🫶🏻
sure is 👍
Hi Ondrej! When did you summit the weissmies? Like your videos man! Cheers <3
Hi! Thanks! July 4th, 2023. Good luck out there! 👍

I'm from Busan. Have you been to Marine City?
Unfortunately not, my time was very limited 😕 But I loved everything I’ve managed to see and enjoyed my time in Busan (and South Korea in general) very much! I’m sure I’ll return there to explore me one day 😁
❤@@cedr
You missed Aerocity, Khan market and South Delhi. You should have avoided going to Old Delhi, Paharganj. It is the worst place in all of India.
Tampere is a cruel crime ridden city. This is coming from someone thats raised in London.
výstup Col du Mont Maudit bol desivý? čo bolo na tom najhoršie :) dik za odpoveď
Ahoj, výstup vede sněho/ledovou stěnou se sklonem 50°-55°. Na začátku té stěny byl (aspoň v létě 2021 natažen krátký fix, který je myslím vidět i na videu) ale vedl jen přes krátky obzvlášť ledový úsek. Když jsem pod to stěnou stál přišlo mi to jako pravoúhlá zeď. A dole nekonečná propast. Nedokážu odhadnout kolik metrů ta stěna má, ale měl jsem toho plný zuby a v půlce si potřeboval trochu oddechnout... což není bez zajištění úplně easy. Bez lana bych to sám už lézt nechtěl. A dolů v žádném případě... věděl jsem hned že musím sestoupat normálkou přes Gouter. A ta mi také pak skutečně ve srovnání přišla výrazně snadnější. Takže asi tak, s lanem a parťáky to ale asi nebude žádné drama, ale je to definitivně nejhorší místo celé trasy. Good luck
@@cedr Ďakujem. P.S.: mala by mať cez 50metrov dlžky. Snáď.
Pontresina is a so endearingly cozy mountain town ! A heaven on Earth !
Follow crumbs to get to the cookie jar. Enjoyed
In a short video, you have shown complete Delhi. Beautiful video. Thank you. 👍
Beautiful! Cant wait to go to Busan this year in October. 😍🙌

Beautiful city, very very clean and people look peaceful and nicer than in Red China. If there are subtitles so we know where are the places in this wonderful city. Thank Ondrej for this hard work video.

Skvjelý video! Jiank ses docela blaaaazen tam tak sam poskakovat když jsem viděl ty trhliny :). Nemáš i nějakou stránku s popiskama cest horskejch?
Díky 👍 Stránku s popiskama nemam, občas jsem něco hodil na fejs, ale když jsem si to později po sobě přečetl tak to byl strašnej cringe 😄 Takže to radši nechám zkušenějším 🙂
Hahaha, what an amazing glacier crossing!! Another solo climber here but not as crazy as you ;) Any less spicy routes in the alps you can recommend to climb solo? :)
Hi! Thank you :) If we're talking glaciers, but less intense I think Austria would be perfect. I loved my time at Ötztal Alps, I spent week or so in Vent and climbed around there. Plenty of 3500+ peaks that are manageable solo (Wildspitze, Similaun, etc.) to choose from. Routes are fairly straightforward but beautiful. And that's only Ötztal . Well and since this is video from Switzerland... In Switzerland... I dunno... there's a lot... even some 4000+ peaks are imho much easier than stuff in this video. Breithorn, Allalinhorn, Weissmies... are all doable solo and offer amazing experiences. I also loved Dolomites in Italy, but only glacier is on Marmolada, but it's also worth it. It's fun because you can climb up via ferrata and go down via glacier. Good luck out there!

Not really helpful because no one tells where you are walking through.

Paráda 👍👍 Gratulace 😎💪
alleine nicht gut

Nothing wrong with soloing if you bear the consequences and know the risks
I hope you will visiting iran as well ❤
I'd love to go there one day 👍
nice beats!
Cheers! I think it complements the video well. It sounds less of a hedache than constant beeping of tuk-tuks and screaming of touts 😄
Why is a part of the background score so eerie 😂
My entire trip to India seemed kinda other-worldly so it feels appropriate 😅
